Analysts: The wave of US Treasury sell-offs triggered by the Israel-Hamas conflict may continue.

Jin10 data June 16 news, if we take the past conflicts between Israel and Palestine as a reference, the selling pressure caused by the latest round of conflicts on the 10-year US Treasury bonds may continue. Since last Friday’s escalation of tensions between Israel and Palestine into direct conflict, the yield on the US benchmark Treasury bonds has risen by 9 basis points—soaring oil prices have intensified inflation worries. Institutional analysis shows that when Iran directly launched attacks in April 2024, and when conflicts between the two countries reignited last October, US Treasury yields similarly rose rapidly and remained high for the following 30 days. Carlos Casanova, senior Asia economist at Union Bancaire Privée Hong Kong, stated that the market is fluctuating wildly, with investors flocking to safe-haven assets and driving up crude oil prices, which may lead to further increases in the 10-year US Treasury yield. For US Treasury investors, the current situation adds multiple risks: the trade war initiated by President Trump exacerbates inflation concerns, and the US debt issue continues to worsen. As the Middle East tensions impact energy prices, market traders demanding higher risk premiums may continue to push yields higher.
